Summary
Do you have a proposal for research that could make an original contribution to healthcare knowledge and go on to improve the health of our society?
Our Research Degree (PhD), offered in partnership with and awarded by Solent University, could be your opportunity to undertake valuable original research, supported by our experienced academic team.
Choosing to undertake your PhD with us means you’ll experience the many benefits of being part of a specialist health sciences university. We train a wide range of health-related professionals and, uniquely, provide multiple clinical services. Our students have access to highly specialised on-site facilities, such as our Integrated Rehabilitation Centre and Open Upright MRI, within which a range of health-related research is embedded. Our specialised and experienced staff will become your supervisory team and support your research, training and academic development.
We have funding available via competition for fully-funded studentships or fee-waiver support for UK home students.
Key Research Areas We have expertise in chiropractic, psychology and mental health, physiotherapy, sport exercise and health sciences, dietetics, podiatry, radiography, ultrasound, breast imaging, clinical reporting, sport rehabilitation, speech and language therapy and occupational therapy.
Our research is focused around two broad themes:
-
Helping people to improve their health, wellbeing and quality of life through non-pharmacological treatments and interventions.
-
Enabling people and teams to improve their performance.
We will support PhD projects that contribute towards these themes. If you’re passionate about generating knowledge and innovation that impacts the healthcare of tomorrow, our Research Degree programme provides the opportunity to undertake original research related to health sciences.
You can apply to study a PhD with us by proposing your own idea for a research project or you can apply to one of the projects proposed by our academic schools.
